[Dah-Henny]

Wow, that article's a bit one sided.

 

[boba]

Who the heck is Nexstar and what broadcast channels do they control.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

[KAB]

I won't (can't) address the utter you know what about that release. Did not even reveal their markets.

Allen, you better make like a bear and go into hibernation if this BS uspsets you so much.

Night, night.

 

[boba]

Now I know why Nexstar meant nothing even though they are based in TX.

 

[lypo]

Wow most of the locals in the Little Rock area. I am going to be really unhappy if we lose those. So sick of these disputes.

 

[Mr Tony]

Who the heck is Nexstar and what broadcast channels do they control.

A company notorious for not doing subchannels unless its a station they bought

 

[CK SatGuy]

The station group, Nextstar, which owns over 60 affiliates in 46 markets says Dish could lose them Friday Night if a new agreement isn't signed. http://www.nexstar.tv/story/d/story...kets-may-lose-ne/41660/AMjNApyA2UOIpXqa5XNvOw

[dare2be]

My conus locals are still intact

 

[Jim S.]

So they'd rather NOT have half the country watching them, and NOT be getting ANY money from Dish?

Wow, seems like some serious mental aberration.

(Of course, I also think it's an aberration to expect anyone to pay for something that others can pick up for free.)

A lot of these stations in the same cities are owned by Mission Broadcasting but run by Nexstar through a service agreement, would those be affected too?

 

[TNGTony]

I don't know for sure, but I think so. Essentially Nexstar is running the show.

 

[sam_gordon]

So they'd rather NOT have half the country watching them, and NOT be getting ANY money from Dish?

Wow, seems like some serious mental aberration.

(Of course, I also think it's an aberration to expect anyone to pay for something that others can pick up for free.)

What does it say that people are WILLING to pay for something that others can pick up for free?

 

[jerryez]

When the distributor packages it with the sat channels, I don't have a choice.

 

[MikeD-C05]

What does it say that people are WILLING to pay for something that others can pick up for free?

That is what people said about cable when it first came out in the 60s and 70s. But people did pay and still do.....for now.

 

[gowrone]

I hope I don't lose K OL are here, I would hate to not be able to watch the Big Bang theory and elementary.

 

[dare2be]

What does it say that people are WILLING to pay for something that others can pick up for free?

That's not happening. You pay for locals whether you want to or not, if you want any kind of programming.
